The Gantt View

Using the Gantt View, you can visualize elements and assigned resources in a Gantt Chart format, to review the breakdown of work for a specific project. The Gantt View illustrates a project schedule by showing the start and finish dates of assigned resources, so that a project manager can quickly see the current project status using the percent-complete bar shading and the percent-complete, resource name and status columns.

Overdue items can quickly be identified in red by selecting the Toggle Highlight of Overdue Items option from the Gantt view's context menu.

There are four different Gantt Views available within Enterprise Architect:

•

Diagram Gantt View - Show all the elements on a diagram in a Gantt Chart - view or assign resources to them.

•

Personal Tasks - Show all the elements in the model that you have been assigned as a resource to work on.

•

Project Gantt View - Show all the resources in the model and what elements they have been assigned to.

•

Package Browser Gantt View - Show all the elements in a package and its sub-packages and see what resources have been assigned to them.
